At last... police admit only men commit rape

POLICE Scotland has finally admitted that only men can commit rape as it ripped up its controversial gender selfidentification policy.

Chief Constable Jo Farrell confirmed yesterday that the force backed a Scottish Parliament petition which demands she “accurately record the sex of people charged or convicted of rape or attempted rape”.

It is a massive U-turn from the force which had recorded alleged criminals in line with what sex they identified as.

This led to concerns that crime data was becoming skewed and unreliable by recording biological males as females if they chose to so identify.
